I once heard if the owls are hooting the coons aint moving. But I have found that false over the years.
But about the runt thing it could be a suprestition but i have seen many runts make very tough dogs.

If there's any truth to that I do believe it LOL...my pup with the bump is also one of the smartest dogs I've ever messed with in my life. I believe he thinks he's human most of the time-the little booger seems to understand everything I say!

guy walks into a bar, orders a beer and goes sits down at a table with another fella. in a minute he goes to the bar and says to the bartender:
" i'll bet you five dollars i can touch my eye with my tongue"
bartender takes the bet, dude pulls out his glass eye and touches it to his tongue, gets up and starts talking to the guy at the table again.in a few minutes he goes back to the bartender and says:
'' i'll bet you another five dollars i can bite the back of my knee." bartender takes the bet, guy pulls out his false teeth, bites the back of his knee, goes back to the table. in a minute, he comes back to the bartender and says:
" i feel bad about taking your money like that, i'll give you a chance to get all of it back on a sure thing. you put a beer mug on this bar, slide it down it, and i'll piss it full before it goes off the other side."
bartender says o.k., polishes the bar up good, and literally slings the glass down the bar.
the guy, up on a barstool, just starts spinning on it pissing all around and the beer glass falls of the end of the bar without a drop in it.

the bartender starts laughing wildly shouting "i won, i won". after he calms down the guy pays him off and the bartender says "you didn't get a drop in it, why would you make such i stupid bet." the dude replies back "see that guy at the table over there i've been talking to, i bet him a thousand dollars i could piss all over your bar and make you laugh about it."

if it's on a pup i paid a thousand dollars for that better by announcing the arrival of another gold brick.

superstision

Dog or dogs are running a good track and then flat out lose it. I've heard "an owl swooped down and picked it up".

Heck, we might as well add excuses to this thread too.

Posted by Chris Herring on 07-30-2009 03:51 AM:

I had an older dog, first real coondog, had ear canker bad. When his ears were in good shape he treed harder and louder, when they were dirty or sore he choked down the volume and intensity. I had to treat that rascals ears every other day, but he was a coondog...I went through alot of that old reddish purple ear cleaner.

1. a bluetick with a "V" shape on top of his head is a good sign
2. a bluetick with fat under his neck is a good sign
3. skinny snout means fox dog
4. overbite means fox dog
5. curl up tail means mean dog
6. blanket back means good dog on a walker dog
7. a dog that chops on track is fast.
8. light colored blue on a bluetick is not a good sign
9. good kill dog means good track dog

I must be superstituous because I agree with 1 3 5 7 8 and 9 is a dog with no tree sometimes.

this is one of those situations the gps collar on the COON would be extremely helpful.

I've always heard that a dog with a knot on the back of his head was a running dog and a dog with a V or concave where the knot ought to be was a tree dog. Do I have that backwards? Might explain some of my two year old culls.

Don't respond unless you're pretty sure.

I don't mind the knot as long as the v is good and white.
